and that i was always happiest when i just accepted that. Do you think that i would have made such a success, of my life of i hadn’t learned when to argue and when to keep my mouth shut and follow order?”

The person is saying that they listened to their father and became successful because they knew when to shut up and when it was okay to argue back.

The deeper, hidden meaning might be that the speaker low key regrets having accepted their father's decisions all the time. It seems like the father would win every argument and the speaker couldn't win, so they "just accepted" things, because they knew arguing was futile. They do belive that their father knew best, but also feel forced to accept circumstances. The speaker is likely now talking to their own child, teaching them how to follow orders, and stay in line.

Yes this sentence is a fragment. It doesn't have a predicate and sentences need to have a subject and a verb (predicate) in order to be complete.

"Let brotherly love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, but thereby some have entertained angels unawares
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

The theme of hospitality which can be seen in various instances and teachings in the Bible can also be seen in numerous instances in "The Odyssey". The Greeks highly hold the value of hospitality in their approach and treatment of guests, including strangers, which is nothing new according to Christian beliefs.

Explanation:

The theme of hospitality has been a part of human existence and quality since ages ago. This virtue is also seen in the Bible, where numerous prophets have talked of the need to entertain strangers where "<em>some have entertained angels unawares"</em>. (Hebrews 13)

Likewise, this extending of hospitality to one's guests is a common feature in Homer's "The Odyssey" where we can see numerous instances of guests being warmly welcomed in their journeys. Some have even housed "gods" who were disguised. Another feature of this virtue is the Greeks' attitude of sending their guests off with gifts, for they believed that the same may one day fall on them and when that day arrives, they may also be treated the same way. One example is that of Odysseus' time in the land of the Phaeacians (Book 6-8). Not only was he welcomed warmly, he was given a safe stay and then departed with a number of gifts. Such was the etiquette of the humans even in ancient Greece, almost similar with that of how the believers in the Bible were taught to be.  The Christian brotherly love of friendship and hospitality is all the same to the Greeks who also seemed to have an unwritten rule of being hospitable to everyone, even strangers.
